Chapter 95 Zoe Lane
It’s going to be embarrassing for me if she keeps talking.
Eugene looked at her and kept grinning. So she’s this kind of person in private. “Let’s go to pick North up then,” Olivia told him.
A short while later, they arrived at the residence, and they were greeted by the servants. “Welcome home, Young Master Eugene, and hello, Dr. Maxwell.” Olivia nodded politely and followed Eugene in. When they came in, aside from Eugene’s grandfather, Nathan, and North, there was a young lady in her twenties there. She was wearing a tight pink dress, her hair tumbling down her shoulder, accentuating her petite face, her eyes clear and innocent. When she saw them, the girl quickly stood up and went to hold Eugene’s arm.
“Eugene! I thought Grandpa was lying, but you really do come every day!”
“And why are you here?” Eugene frowned.
“I’m here to visit Grandpa,” Zoe Lane replied. “And we talked about you earlier.”
North’s face fell when he saw what Zoe did, so he went past Eugene to go straight to his mother. “Mommy.”
Olivia was surprised that North didn’t go to Eugene when he was right in front of him. Usually, he liked Eugene more than her, but her son said nothing on this day. She patted his head. “Have you been good?”
“Yeah. I told Great-grandpa some stories, and he’s really happy I did,” North chirped.
Old Man Nolan greeted Olivia happily. “Have a seat, Olivia. North told me diseases are afraid of super strong people, so if I stay happy and unafraid at all times, I’d get cured quickly. He’s a smart kid.”
Olivia looked proud of her son, and she looked at North gently. “You’re right, honey,” she praised.
“You taught your son well, Olivia. I like him a lot.” Old Man Nolan nodded.
“As long as you don’t think he’s a nuisance.” Olivia chuckled.
Old Man Nolan shook his head. “Of course I don’t. Come over whenever you have time, you two.”
Right after that, Zoe quickly came to hold his arm. “Do you want me to come over then, Grandpa? Did you like the soup I made?”
Old Man Nolan glanced at Zoe indifferently. “Yes.”
Olivia’s lips twitched. Who is this girl? She’s just like a child!
“Aren’t you here for Eugene, Zoe? Now that he’s here, don’t disturb Grandpa anymore. He didn’t even have time to rest the whole afternoon.” Penny had a dark look on her face.
Olivia knew she was directing this message to her, and it made her uneasy. Noticing that Penny went out of her way to glance at North when she said that, Olivia knew that she wasn’t being over-sensitive. “I came here to pick North up, Mr. Nolan. We’ll be leaving now.”
Old Man Nolan had seen everything over his life, so he smiled. “Why don’t you stay for lunch? I want to spend more time with North.”
Olivia politely refused. “It’s fine, Mr. Nolan. I have something to do later, so we’ll come some other time.” North also waved Old Man Nolan goodbye.
Left with no choice, Old Man Nolan said goodbye. “Drive safely then. Eugene will send you guys off.”
Of course I am, Eugene thought. I need to have my meal.
Zoe quickly stood up. “I came here for you, Eugene! If you’re leaving, then I’m coming too!”
